[Publib] outsourcing printing

[Renee Ponzio]

Does any library totally outsource public printing, by that I mean do you use a vendor that takes care of paper, ink, machines etc. that would then charge the public to print either with a card they could purchase or even with coin etc. at the time of printing? If so what vendor do you use? what has been the impact on staff and customers? do you like it or not? and why. What financial burden do you carry with doing this or is there revenue? Thank you in advance for your time and attention.
